Yeah Michelle! I am happy to hear that you got a reservation. I will definitely let you know if my friend can come along. He's currently in Peru though, and I think he's back at the end of this week. YEAH!!!

Thanks Sarah! I just talked to a friend and he was excited too, so I have a reservation and a dive buddy. Woohoo!!!

See you all there!

Hoorah for that!!! I am contemplating the merits of going down on the 6th and doing some afternoon dives and then spending the night. Borg's Motel (in Pacific Grove, right by Lover's) has some cheeeeeaaappppp rooms available - between $99 and $145.

Chuckle. Chortle. HA HA HA.

I remember when Motel 6 was $6. And there was the odd Motel 5, and in Oakland there
was a Motel 4 (never even thought about staying there, but it was visible from the
Nimitz (Who knows who Nimitz was?))

And no, dinosaurs did not roam the earth then.

Hey Chuck, is that when you used to walk uphill (both ways) in the snow to school? My dad used to joke about how his father would say just that. They both grew up in New Orleans, LA. Us young whipper snappers love to hear stories from back in the day.

That walk to school was 10 MILES, and miles were longer back then...

Chuck, stop lying about your age, you're not old.

You are referring to Admiral Nimitz I believe.

We're never too old as long as we're still diving.

Sarah,
I was thinking about going down on Sat and hopefully getting in an afternoon and night dive too. Let me know if you decide to.

Cheers,

I grew up in Tucson -- snow was a very rare event. And it was only 3/4 of a mile to
high school, just a couple of blocks to elementary and Jr. HS.
